[edit] History

The airline was established on 9 May 2000 and started operations on 1 June 2001 operating domestic services with Boeing 737 aircraft. It started up after TAESA closed down and some of the staff and assets were taken over ^[1].

The airline is a member, under the name Azteca Airlines, of the Airlines Reporting Corporation. Líneas Aéreas Azteca has actively sought to expand international routes into the United States. In 2003, Azteca contributed a small amount to traffic through Ontario International Airport, California, constituting ~0.5% of passenger traffic in each of January and October. ^{[citation needed]}
